The only place I've seen this error is when there is a version mismatch
in the use of the compiler. I had it on a system with several versions
of gcc/g++ installed and some varients of binutils. Once I pruned out
the versions I didn't actually need and did a make clean, the problem
went away.

Hope this helps,
